The BREAKING news of the day is that the judge in Kenosha, Wisconsin just dismissed the possession of a dangerous weapon charge levied against Kyle Rittenhouse, who is facing murder charges after he shot three men who had attacked him during riots last year. Rittenhouse, an Illinois resident, had joined other volunteers in protecting Kenosha businesses during the destructive rioting.
In his closing arguments, the key prosecutor pointed an AR 15-style gun at the courtroom with his finger on the trigger (an obvious no-no...no matter what) and went on to say “You lose the right to self-defense when you're the one who brought the gun. When you're the one creating the danger." This guy's dead wrong. Law-abiding gun owners are not criminals. Kyle Rittenhouse using a firearm to LEGALLY defend himself is precisely why the Second Amendment is so important to protect. This is a developing story – read more below.
